a quick hello.

Hei kaikki!

And thank you for the sweet comments, I truly appreciate these. I just haven´t had lately time to comment back, post (or even take) nice photos, or to even sleep enough. I don't have any holidays around christmas, but luckily the school is closed for one week. I still have one exam before christmas, so I should study.

After a long and tiring week, it's finally weekend. We decided to have pikkujoulu, a little christmas this weekend,
putting up the christmas tree, having a traditional finnish christmas dinner (at 24th and 25th it will be french christmas).
As the weekend just begun, I'm still having my pyjamas on, 
just had rice porridge and fruit soup for breakfast.

These photos are from last weekend, when we visited R's parents in Orange. The day was so beautiful with the fog and amazing light.

The winter here looks like fall, we hardly ever have really cold weather or snow.
This year has been different - the temperature in this month has been around +10..+15!
What is quite warm.

Léonie and her first christmas calendar. With cat treats ;)


We finally found the christmas tree, it is beautiful but I couldn't capture its beauty.
And as we have a small apartment, we needed to change the order a little bit that the tree could even fit in.


Last night our dinner was Mont d'or, again these french cheese deliciousness.
 Mont d'or before cooking, looks like molded...but delicious!

With white wine..mmmm.. nice friday night.

I need to start cooking soon for tonight and post a christmas package for my parents (I'm little late heh)
Have a nice weekend and enjoy!

Ps. Frank Sinatra's christmas album is still my favourite.
